Human-Centered Organization

What is a human-centered organization?

A human-centered organization is an organization that prioritizes the health, wellbeing, and development of their employees and community. Human-centered organizations are actively engaged in the betterment of their employees’ lives. They might offer a range of programs and benefits that make a positive impact, including student loan assistance, mental health benefits, wellbeing benefits, life coaching, childcare assistance, and more.  

Example: As a human-centered organization, we’re committed to providing services that help our employees live happier and healthier lives. 

The benefits of running a human-centered organization

Human-centered organizations often achieve higher business success. Prioritizing individual wellbeing reduces stress and improves employee engagement and happiness. Employees feel seen, heard, and respected, which boosts productivity, bolsters loyalty, and increases retention. People feel more comfortable sharing ideas, taking on new responsibilities, and collaborating with colleagues. 

Attracting top talent is easier for human-centered organizations. Organizations create a positive workplace culture by providing high quality personal development and wellness programs. Organizations that put people first avoid the high costs associated with employee turnover, new hire training, and lost productivity.
